Monsieur Mayonnaise

Sunday 15 October - 3pm @Palace Electric Cinema

Grab a glass of wine and join us for the screening of the documentary "Monsieur Mayonnaise"! Before the screening, enjoy an on stage cooking demonstration by Chef Christophe GREGOIRE from the French Restaurant "Le Très Bon".


Monsieur Mayonnaise is an artist’s epic adventure into his family’s secret past. Australian artist and film-maker, Philippe Mora, investigates his father’s clandestine role in the French Résistance in WW2 and his mother’s miraculous escape enroute to Auschwitz. Philippe, a Hollywood cult-horror movie director and pop-artist, adopts a Film Noir persona to tell his family’s story. He also packs his paints and easel, as he embarks on a journey to create an audacious comic book about his parents, their survival and the Holocaust. From LA to Berlin, Paris to Melbourne,
Monsieur Mayonnaise is a richly layered, road movie starring artists, real life heroes, Nazi villains … and baguettes with lashings of tasty French mayonnaise!
